## Use LiteLLM for

<details open>
<summary><b>LLMs</b> - Call 100+ LLMs (Python SDK + AI Gateway)</summary>

[**All Supported Endpoints**](https://docs.litellm.ai/docs/supported_endpoints) - `/chat/completions`, `/responses`, `/embeddings`, `/images`, `/audio`, `/batches`, `/rerank`, `/a2a`, `/messages` and more.

### Python SDK

```shell
pip install litellm
```

```python
from litellm import completion
import os

os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "your-openai-key"
os.environ["ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"] = "your-anthropic-key"

# OpenAI
response = completion(model="openai/gpt-4o", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}])

# Anthropic  
response = completion(model="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}])
```

### AI Gateway (Proxy Server)

[**Getting Started - E2E Tutorial**](https://docs.litellm.ai/docs/proxy/docker_quick_start) - Setup virtual keys, make your first request

```shell
pip install 'litellm[proxy]'
litellm --model gpt-4o
```

```python
import openai

client = openai.OpenAI(api_key="anything", base_url="http://0.0.0.0:4000")
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="gpt-4o",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
)
```

<summary><b>Agents</b> - Invoke A2A Agents (Python SDK + AI Gateway)</summary>

[**Supported Providers**](https://docs.litellm.ai/docs/a2a#add-a2a-agents) - LangGraph, Vertex AI Agent Engine, Azure AI Foundry, Bedrock AgentCore, Pydantic AI

### Python SDK - A2A Protocol

```python
from litellm.a2a_protocol import A2AClient
from a2a.types import SendMessageRequest, MessageSendParams
from uuid import uuid4

client = A2AClient(base_url="http://localhost:10001")

request = SendMessageRequest(
    id=str(uuid4()),
    params=MessageSendParams(
        message={
            "role": "user",
            "parts": [{"kind": "text", "text": "Hello!"}],
            "messageId": uuid4().hex,
        }
    )
)
response = await client.send_message(request)
```

### AI Gateway (Proxy Server)

**Step 1.** [Add your Agent to the AI Gateway](https://docs.litellm.ai/docs/a2a#adding-your-agent)

**Step 2.** Call Agent via A2A SDK

```python
from a2a.client import A2ACardResolver, A2AClient
from a2a.types import MessageSendParams, SendMessageRequest
from uuid import uuid4
import httpx

base_url = "http://localhost:4000/a2a/my-agent"  # LiteLLM proxy + agent name
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer sk-1234"}    # LiteLLM Virtual Key

async with httpx.AsyncClient(headers=headers) as httpx_client:
    resolver = A2ACardResolver(httpx_client=httpx_client, base_url=base_url)
    agent_card = await resolver.get_agent_card()
    client = A2AClient(httpx_client=httpx_client, agent_card=agent_card)

    request = SendMessageRequest(
        id=str(uuid4()),
        params=MessageSendParams(
            message={
                "role": "user",
                "parts": [{"kind": "text", "text": "Hello!"}],
                "messageId": uuid4().hex,
            }
        )
    )
    response = await client.send_message(request)
```

<summary><b>MCP Tools</b> - Connect MCP servers to any LLM (Python SDK + AI Gateway)</summary>

### Python SDK - MCP Bridge

```python
from mcp import ClientSession, StdioServerParameters
from mcp.client.stdio import stdio_client
from litellm import experimental_mcp_client
import litellm

server_params = StdioServerParameters(command="python", args=["mcp_server.py"])

async with stdio_client(server_params) as (read, write):
    async with ClientSession(read, write) as session:
        await session.initialize()

        # Load MCP tools in OpenAI format
        tools = await experimental_mcp_client.load_mcp_tools(session=session, format="openai")

        # Use with any LiteLLM model
        response = await litellm.acompletion(
            model="gpt-4o",
            messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What's 3 + 5?"}],
            tools=tools
        )
```

### AI Gateway - MCP Gateway

**Step 1.** [Add your MCP Server to the AI Gateway](https://docs.litellm.ai/docs/mcp#adding-your-mcp)

**Step 2.** Call MCP tools via `/chat/completions`

```bash
curl -X POST 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/v1/chat/completions' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer sk-1234' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "model": "gpt-4o",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Summarize the latest open PR"}],
    "tools": [{
      "type": "mcp",
      "server_url": "litellm_proxy/mcp/github",
      "server_label": "github_mcp",
      "require_approval": "never"
    }]
  }'
```

### Use with Cursor IDE

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "LiteLLM": {
      "url": "http://localhost:4000/mcp/",
      "headers": {

      }
    }
  }
}
```
